Interesting. The thing that threw me with my site is that the sites higher than mine had an "F" grade for everything. It seems it's just the links to it that make the difference. I emailed the other site (which was number one) and the person emailed back saying that he didn't even know what SEO was and that he hasn't updated the site for months! What the heck?

RE: Keyword Search - another site bypassed me and they are not ranked well...
Thanks Phil,
It seems I have a create content road ahead of me. I thought being a great site selling quality instruments would be enough. I do see the sites which are above me are purely educational sites or pbs site with no retail involved. I will get to work and map my improvement!

Keyword Search - another site bypassed me and they are not ranked well...
I was trying to optimize the keywords "music for kids" . This is a no brainer because my URL is "musicforkids" My On-Page Report Card for "music for kids" gives my site a "A". The on page report card for the other site gets an "F". But the other site comes up number ONE in the organic Google search and my site comes up number three. The two sites above me receive a crappy on page Keyword report for the key words "music for kids" but they still come up above me for that search term. What's the deal?

Campaigns Domain and Subdomain... ?
I made two separate campaigns before I understood the meaning of "subdomain". I make one campaign for my www.com and another for my .com. I now realize I should have made the .com the domain and the www. the subdomain in the same campaign. Is there a way to edit this?
Thanks!

RE: Duplicate Page Content and Title - Miva - How to fix?
Hi Clancy,
Thanks for your input. I have tried the Miva tech support and they know less about it then I do! Although Miva has been pretty good. I do have access to all the coding and they offer free classes from time to time for Miva coding. But I'm a newbie at code/css and the like. It seems I may have to pay a Miva pro to figure it out.

Link Acquisition - link building
When using Site Explorer to find out my competiters links so I can do some link aquisition SEO do I look for the "inbound" links or or "linking domains"? Also, what filters should I choose? I want to make a spreadsheet as Rand suggested in his video and start to prioritize my link building.

Duplicate Page Content and Title - Miva - How to fix?
Hi,
I'm new to SEOmoz and just diving into it. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. I use Miva Merchant as my storefront interface. SEMOz is returning a bunch of duplicate page content and duplicate page titles and I can't figure out what to do about it. It seems it may have something to do with Miva shortlinks. I click on the dup URL's in SEMOz and it brings me to a dead page. I can't figure out where it's coming from.
I know without seeing the actual information it'll probably be tough to help me but any suggestions would be appreciated. I try to fix them and come to a point (after about three hours of getting nowhere) it becomes too frustrating.
Thanks!
Gary
